The Love List
Things I love to talk about, think about, and spend time on.
Philadelphia
I am a true blue fan of Philly. I love connecting and building out its communities. No matter what you’re in to, I would love to recommend something that helps you fall in love, too.
Leadership, Operations & Tech
My professional expertise is in strategy, hiring, operations, and product development. I love building teams and developing their abilities to bring new concepts into the world.
Entrepreneurship
As a business owner for 28 years, I had informally mentored many friends. Now, I support entrepreneurs at all levels through SCORE and Mentor Connect (as well as informally.)
Getting Women Elected
Creating change often means bringing new people to the table. I recruit and train women to run for office with Emerge PA, and fund their campaigns through Represent PA.
Women, Money, and Power
Politics and businesses are two facets of the relationships women have with money and power. Money lets you shape a world you want. Join Invest for Better Philadelphia, and find your money community!
People!
Mentoring, professional development, promoting board service, just having genuine conversations … I love watching people grow and thrive beyond what they envision for themselves.
Serious about fun.
Fun is what lights up our days. I planned a whole Year of Fun for my family, and so many people told me they needed to steal that idea. Consider True Fun — if you’re having enough, and if you have an internal story that is keeping you from having more. Ask yourself, what’s something you could do today to say “yes” to fun?
